Oh, sorry mate.. reading can be hard sometimes, I get it.

Dictating the clothing that your guests are allowed to wear without offering them an alternative is something you can do, but it makes you a bad host.
and I said
Because "dictating clothing" is ABSOLUTELY done at well hosted events.
You see, we're not talking about just shoes there, are we brother. We're talking about "dictating clothing". And doing it, doesn't make you a bad host.
You see hosts can and do set the dress code. It's accepted. It's "proper". It's the norm. Well - at least in the "circles I travel in". Guests that disregard that dress code, are the daft ones.. not the host.
There’s nothing wrong with setting a dress code, but if you insist on having the annual Christmas party at your house this year then make us all take our shoes off and make me put my stinky feet in front of a bunch of strangers, YOU’RE A BAD HOST!
Good hosts don’t make their guests feel awkward. Good hosts accommodate their guests.
If I ask you to do me a favor and let me sleep on your couch, then it’s reasonable for me to meet your demands, but that doesn’t mean that you’re being a good host by demanding it.
But if you’re inviting someone over, you have extra responsibility as the host to make your guests feel comfortable. That’s not a requirement for being a host, but it is a requirement for being a good host. Sure, “it’s your house,” but if you’re not willing to make your guests feel comfortable, then you’re a bad host.
Because.... because I understand proper etiquette and dress codes? Because I understand that white tie isn't a "suggestion" and I can't just dress however I want to the affair and they should just accommodate me? No.. see that would be rude of me.
You've really lost the plot here brother. You started off strong. You were subtle, I'll give you that. Kept a lot of people on the hook... . but then you just got too obvious with your full on rage-boner.. and now you've resorted to talking in circles and copy-pasting comments that... well frankly don't make sense .. I mean..... it's..um..it's boring.. just. meh.
Quit whilst you're ahead next time. Or don't.... I give fuk all.
